The Flatirons in Art

Boulder's signature slabs, seen many ways.

The Flatirons — Boulder's tilted sandstone slabs — as Boulder County artists paint, print, and photograph them, across every medium and style.

Few landmarks are rendered as often as the Flatirons. This room gathers works that feature them directly: plein-air oils made on the trail, studio abstractions of the same skyline, and quiet photographs of the light on the rock.
